Hi, did you find a fix for this? I fitted mine this morning with the exact same issue. Super annoying as I wanted the white lighting around the trim -however not matter which lighting mode I choose the trim only shows in orange.
When I unplug the Y cable everything is working correctly. Quote:

All I did was open up one end. Swapped the outer wires and crimped it again and I got both colours working. |

Re-Check your wiring.

As long as we don't know what exactly it is you have done or changed and which build and model year your car is, all is wild speculation.

I did a straight swap of the entire unit. Radio, temp gauges, etc in addition to the assembly with the goal of LCI ambient light. But I do want the white temp displays too. My previous panel was orange only. |

Congrats for the mod and for the effort put into this whole thing. I was looking forward to it, but turns out I don't have the cup holder LED nor the footwell lights, but I was wondering: could it be possible to draw power from the wiring which sends juice to the instrument cluster? I've seen people fitting lights and wiring them to the dimmer dial, but wouldn't it be better and easier to tap in the power sent to the cluster LEDs?
This may sound dumb, but in my head it makes sense and seems feasible. What do you guys think? |

For cars without light package (no cupholder LED and no footwell LED), you can get power from the hazard button LED - I've seen people do it. I'll come back with instructions & photos when my trim arrives, or if someone can do it faster, please post.
